Abstract
Nitrato complexes of copper(II) with 1-ethoxymethyl- imiazole (L), of general formulae CuL2(NO3)2 (1) and CuL4(NO3)2 (2) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis and by i.r., f.i.r., vis-n.i.r. spectral evidence, conductivity, magnetochemical measurements and single crystal X-ray analysis. Compound (1) has two 1-ethoxymethylimidazole molecules and two bidentate nitrato groups in the copper(II) co-ordination sphere. In complex (2) the immediate surroundings of copper(II) is described by a tetragonally elongated octahedron with the difference the horizontal and equatorial bond lengths of 0.462 Å.
